The Full Moon rising on December 22, 2018, the day after the winter solstice, in a perfectly clear sky and over the distant horizon to the northeast over the snow-covered prairie. Some cows are grazing at left! The top edge of the Moon has a green rim and the bottom edge a red rim, from atmospheric refraction. But it made for a Christmas-coloured Moon ornament on the horizon! The dark lunar mare and even the bright rays splashing from Tycho at bottom are visible.https://images.robertharding.com/zoom/RM/RH/HORIZONTAL/1350-77.jpg1350-77https://www.robertharding.com/licenses-explained/https://www.robertharding.com/preview/1350-77/full-moon-rising-december-day-winter-solstice-perfectly/

When warm moist air comes in contact with cold glass it condenses and freezes into crystals that become wonderful works of art. Only extreme, frigid, cold weather produces the filigree of patterns and fanciful shapes.https://images.robertharding.com/zoom/RM/RH/HORIZONTAL/1350-299.jpg1350-299https://www.robertharding.com/licenses-explained/https://www.robertharding.com/preview/1350-299/warm-moist-air-contact-cold-glass-condenses-freezes/

This is the nebula rich region in the constellation of Monoceros the Unicorn with the dark Cone Nebula (left of centre) and the small V-shaped and bright Hubble's Variable Nebula at bottom, a reflection nebula that varies in form and brightness. Above the Cone Nebula is the triangular Christmas Tree Cluster, NGC 2264, here upside down as the bright blue star 15 Mon is the base of the tree. The large region of nebulosity is Sharpless 2-273. The V-shaped dark nebula above centre is LDN 1603.https://images.robertharding.com/zoom/RM/RH/HORIZONTAL/1350-58.jpg1350-58https://www.robertharding.com/licenses-explained/https://www.robertharding.com/preview/1350-58/nebula-rich-region-constellation-monoceros-unicorn-dark-cone/
